Kainomyx was founded by five Stanford scientists

September 4, 2019 – Kainomyx was founded by five Stanford scientists who are experts in the biology, biochemistry and biophysics of the cytoskeleton of cells – James Spudich, PhD, Annamma Spudich, PhD, Darshan Trivedi, PhD, Suman Nag, PhD, and Kathleen Ruppel, MD,PhD.

When we, the founders, were thinking of possible names for the company, we searched for words that relate to innovation in approaches leading to restoration and recovery from health issues. Kainotomia is a Greek word meaning innovation, and kai in Japanese has a number of meanings, including restoration and recovery. "Kainomyx" was perfect.
